Describe the biggest difference in your daily life.
The biggest difference in my daily life is the feeling of knowing that I will further my studies. Despite being a comprehensive nurse, the thought of me becoming an enrolled one delights me as I will be able to render my services to my community and those in need.
Describe the moment when you received your money. How did you feel?
The moment I received my money, I felt so happy that I had got money that was going to help me carry my dream of being an enrolled nurse forward.
What did you spend your first transfer on?
I spent my first transfer to pay up for enrolled nurse admission at Ugx 800000 Natiki Health Institute - Kanyinima. I am saving up Ugx 900000 that I plan to top up with the second transfer and pay up my tuition.

What does receiving this money mean to you?
Receiving this money means thaf I will go back to the nursing school to upgrade my papers. Right now government wants those who operate clinicks to have a paper in enrolment nursing. This would boost my business as I'm currently selling drugs.
What is the happiest part of your day?
My happiest part of the day is lunch time. It is the time that I receive my clients. I take also time to chat with them.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
My biggest hardship is lack of money to go for upgrading. Sometimes government officials (drug inspector) usually threatens to take a way my drugs and this affects my sells as I'm forced to lock the drugshop.
